Crowdfunding call for the digitalization of Luru Kino at the Spinnerei

The movie theater Luru Kino at the Spinnerei in Leipzig (run by Michael Ludwig and Christoph Ruckhäberle) needs your support!In 2013 the production and distribution of current movies on 35 mm film material have practically come to an end. In order to become able to show digital film copies, keep the cinema economically operational and not least to preserve its analogue technology set, our most favourite movie theater needs expensive technical upgrading.
